VYPE Houston Thursday Playoff Round-Up (Bi-District)
Well the first night is officially in the books.
The 2020 Texas high school football playoffs officially kicked off on Thursday night across the state for Class 5A & 6A programs and the Houston-area was buzzing with playoff action. Who's moving on? Check out the scoreboard!
Lamar defeats Memorial 39-7
Lamar registered its first playoff win since 2017 on Thursday night with a 39-7 home victory over Memorial. It was tied 7-7 at the half but a quick 14-point burst coming out of the locker room is all Lamar needed. A bunch of different names popped out in this win. The running of Kenneth Kennedy was impressive, he's a big back who will punish people. Freshman Jordan Reaves had a passing and rushing touchdown in the win and he's only a freshman. Jeremy Fagan registered a safety for the defense and Jaivion Green came up with an interception as well. Lamar outscored Memorial 32-0 in the second half to win the game. It was an all-around good performance for Lamar.
Foster dominates GCM for Playoff win
